Mel's Hole

Mel's Hole is, according to an urban legend, an allegedly "bottomless pit" near Ellensburg, Washington. Claims about it were first made on the radio show Coast to Coast AM by a guest calling himself "Mel Waters." Later investigation revealed no such person was listed as residing in that area, and no credible evidence that the hole exists.[1][2][3]

According to the radio interviews with "Waters", the hole has infinite depth and the ability to restore dead animals to life. Waters claimed to have measured the hole's depth to be more than 15 miles (24 kilometers) by using fishing line and a weight. The exact location of the hole was unspecified, yet several people have claimed to have found the hole.[1][3]
